The Sun is Hot: Inspirational Poetry is a compilation of
poems written by the author. The general theme of these poems is living through and rising above
pain,
suffering, and challenging experiences. Within these works, however, is an intriguing amount of depth. For instance, a particular poem may lay out the raw pain and suffering of an individual’s experience. The work then leads the individual beyond that negative place into a state of growth, of strength, and personal power that is
truly inspiring. However, as the reader continues through the poems, he or she suddenly comes to the realization that process
described in these works also relates directly to our society: the pain and suffering that exists in today’s world and making movement towards changes to get beyond these problems. Again, truly inspiring. Then, just as the reader starts to reread the poems to explore this new found depth and inspiration, he or she notices that the parallels described run much deeper from the beginnings of time towards a
future unknown. That pain and suffering of any past can be acknowledged and then transcended to create an amazing future in which imagination is the only limiting factor. What an amazingly empowering thought!
